The duo generated buzz through their connection with Jason McGerr (Chloe’s drum teacher) of Death Cab for Cutie and also through the support of other indie royalty, like Cat Power and Sleater-Kinney.

Their two albums ‘She Like Electric’ and ‘Free To Stay’ have achieved high critical acclaim.

Smoosh toured internationally in 2006 supporting Eels and in America in 2007 with Bloc Party. They are currently working on songs for their third album and touring with The Dresden Dolls. (-) collapse
